Spread of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales (ESBL-E) in the community living spaces of patients identified as ESBL-E carriers: impact of the housing density in an African context

CDCharles DeclerckInsermLFLola FerrierCentre Hospitalier Universitaire d'AngersABAlexandra BoccarrossaCentre National de la Recherche Scientifique

Key Points

  • To explore the spread of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales in community living spaces and assess the influence of housing density.
  • Conducted a geographic analysis of ESBL-E colonization in humans and animals.
  • Performed genomic analysis to investigate strain diversity and potential dissemination.
  • Significant colonization of ESBL-E observed in both humans and animals.
  • Geographic analysis suggests human impact on animal colonization without direct transmission.
  • Genomic findings indicate potential for ESBL-E dissemination over large distances.

Abstract

In the area under study, there is significant colonization of both human and animals by ESBL-E, and a major diversity among the isolated strains. Our geographic analysis suggests a human impact on animal colonization, even though the results do not support direct transmission. Concurrently, genomic analysis suggests the possibility of dissemination over significant distances.
